I'm 26 and have been experiencing chest pain for about a month and a half now. I checked my ECG, and it came back normal, but I'm still worried. Sometimes it feels like a pressing sensation, and other times it feels like something's moving inside my chest, shifting from the middle to the top, or from the left side to the middle. What could this be?

View allI'm really worried about the increase in heart attack deaths among the younger generation and folks over 40, especially in places like the Gulf countries and India during these COVID times. What's causing this rise in heart issues? Are there specific factors related to the pandemic that are making heart conditions worse in these areas? It feels like something has changed recently, and I'm trying to understand what's going on.
The increased death due to heart attacks among youngsters and people above 40 during the COVID-19 pandemic in Gulf countries and India can be attributed to various factors. Stress, lack of physical activity, unhealthy diet, and disruption in regular healthcare services are some of the key contributors. Additionally, the fear of contracting COVID-19 may have deterred individuals from seeking timely medical attention for heart-related symptoms, leading to complications and increased mortality rates. To address this issue, it is important to prioritize heart health by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. In cases where individuals have existing heart conditions or risk factors, it is crucial to continue with prescribed medications and follow-up appointments with healthcare providers. If experiencing any concerning symptoms such as chest pain or shortness of breath, it is essential to seek medical help promptly. In terms of medication, individuals with heart conditions may be prescribed medications such as Aspirin for blood thinning, Beta-blockers to reduce blood pressure, and Statins to lower cholesterol levels. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and regimen as advised by a healthcare professional.

I'm wondering if it's alright to have coconut water and oats after having angioplasty surgery. Also, could you suggest which fruits and vegetables would be beneficial during recovery? I'm just a bit anxious about making sure I'm eating the right things.

I'm currently taking 4mg of Acitrom because I had an AVR procedure. My doctor suggested adding Ecosprin 150 mg, but since Ecosprin is also a blood thinner, I'm feeling a bit uncertain about taking both. Could I be at risk for any complications, or is this combination really safe?
Taking Ecosprin 150 mg along with acitrom can increase the risk of bleeding due to their combined blood-thinning effects. It is important to follow your doctor's advice, but if you have concerns, it is best to discuss them with your doctor.
